Alim Olajuwon Alim Olajuwon Alim Olajuwon 6'5" | SG Houston Episcopal | 2027 State TX had an electric scoring presence, capable of changing the momentum of the game in an instant. One of his biggest highlights of the weekend came in transition, where he delivered a vicious poster dunk, catching the rotating shot blocker off guard while finishing with authority above the rim. Olajuwon’s shooting off the bounce was equally instrumental to his offensive production, consistently generating separation with controlled dribble moves, confidently rising into pull-up jumpers from any level.

Olajuwon possesses excellent physical tools and continues to develop into a versatile perimeter threat. He is effective attacking downhill and creating offense in transition while utilizing his size to finish through contact. Defensively, he can guard multiple positions and impact possessions with his length. As his offensive consistency continues to improve, his ceiling remains extremely high. His blend of athleticism and upside is difficult to ignore.

✅ Athletic wing prospect
✅ Downhill scoring ability
✅ Defensive upside

Alim Olajuwon Alim Olajuwon Alim Olajuwon 6'5" | SG Houston Episcopal | 2027 State TX was a true transition scoring threat who thrived in trail situations, stepping into jumpers with rhythm and confidence. He attacked with instincts and balance, showing craft at the rim with up-and-unders and inside-hand finishes, often playing off two feet. Efficient off the dribble, he went straight to his spots without wasted motion, pulling up and knocking down jumpers whether space was available or contested. Olajuwon closed the third quarter in emphatic fashion, sizing up his defender as the clock wound down before stopping on a dime to bury a demoralizing buzzer-beating three-pointer, pushing the lead to 15. His high motor also created turnovers and second-chance opportunities, while his elite pop showed defensively as he pinned shots off the glass.

Olajuwon continues to validate the rise in his stock with a complete and polished guard game. At 6’5, he operates with the poise of a veteran, running offense, manipulating pace, and attacking when angles present themselves. His mid-range touch is smooth, his finishing package is strong, and the perimeter shot has reached a level of consistency that demands defensive respect. What stands out most is his patience. He never looks sped up, but when he sees daylight, he attacks decisively. Defensively, he’s versatile enough to pick up smaller guards 94 feet or battle with bigger wings in the paint. Olajuwon is the heartbeat of Episcopal, and his trajectory this season suggests he’s nowhere close to finished.

Alim Olajuwon Alim Olajuwon Alim Olajuwon 6'5" | SG Houston Episcopal | 2027 State TX , an active on-ball defender, covers a significant amount of ground on the perimeter, particularly against the Burleson Centenial guards. In the paint, he effectively alters and blocks shots attempted by opposing players. His athleticism and length allow him to recover well in transition defense, chasing down and blocking opponents. Offensively, Alim has further developed his game since last season. While he continues to excel in slashing to the basket, he has made significant improvements in all three levels of scoring. His passing skills were evident as he made sharp passes to his teammates, providing multiple scoring opportunities throughout the game. Watching this game, it appears that Alim’s confidence has increased since last season. His impressive 18-point performance yesterday was a testament to his growth and development.

Alim Olajuwon Alim Olajuwon Alim Olajuwon 6'5" | SG Houston Episcopal | 2027 State TX is a 6’5 prospect in the class of 2027 that will only improve with time. Offensively, Alim excels at attacking the basket due to his ability to create for himself putting the ball on the floor. Defensively, he possesses a long wingspan that allows him to get into passing lanes and also cover a lot of ground being able to guard all positions on the floor. In the next two years I can see Alim being a D1 commit if he can expand his game further from where it is currently.
